Really good expansion, and does what an expansion should do - gives more decisions without significantly increasing complexity. It also fixes the role of Darwin and makes stars worth pursuing (having the Darwin token was fairly meaningless in the base game. Extra bonus point for making the expansion insert fit inside the main box insert perfectly.
This expansion is excellent and blends into the base game seamlessly without any fiddliness. I would never play without it, even with new players. The expansion rounds out the game perfectly and makes it so much more interesting.
This expansion is stellar. It turns a light game into medium-light, addresses real issues players have shared, integrates so well with the base game that I could have sworn it was part of it, and comes with an insert that fits inside the base game's box. Outstanding! The only unfortunate thing is the severe color differences in the component prints. Anyway, it's a must-have expansion.
An expansion that makes the base game better, so a must have imho: as well the fact that the persons are now all aside, that the crown is now far more useful as the fact there are some extra possibilities in acquiring animals with the envelops are all real improvements.
Played this expansion tonight at 2-players. It's a must-have expansion that elevates the gameplay and decision space further.
